This is one of those topics where I thought I was rock solid on where I stand with it. As I am watching someone who I consider a friend go through this decision making process. I am afraid for her. I will support whatever decision she makes, I will. I will not judge or anything like that because that is not fair or right. She told me and asked if I would go with her. I told her to make sure she was positive about her decision. I told her again that I would adopt the baby. I did not tell her not to have an abortion. I didnt tell her its wrong or that she will go to hell or nothing like that because I realize if someone told me that I would immediately become defensive and feel judged. She told me of her own free will and asked for support, and that is what I will give her...
I fully understand that the choice is hers to make, I have been thinking
about it and realize that I am feeling conflicted on the issue, and I
do not want to make her uncomfortable or push my thoughts onto her.
That would not be fair at all. I want to be supportive, because I love
the children she has. I have already told her repeatedly that if she
had the baby, I would be willing to adopt the child. This was also an
issue with her previous pregnancy.
Is it wrong that I want her to have the baby? Does it make me selfish that I want to adopt the child?
This is all speculation, as she has not had the pregnancy confirmed at this time.
What do I think? What is it that is bothering so to the point of feeling anxious and nervous?
